City rocked by cost-cutting claims

A remarkable saga has been ongoing on Leicester City websites this morning relating to the allegation that redundancy notices have been served on three of the club's administrative servants.

A post by a respected Fox Fanzine contributor later replicated on Talking Balls and Foxestalk claimed that a new assistant to Tim Davies had conducted a cost-cutting exercise.

This supposedly resulted in redundancy notices being handed out to three valued employees.

However, it was also claimed in the post that the board had not, as yet, ratified the supposed redundancies making the handing out of any such notices sound incomprehensible and highly unlikely.

Leicester City appeared to act promptly and the story was withdrawn by various sites although it did remain for several hours on Talking Balls until being voluntarily withdrawn by the subsidiary poster at lunchtime.

Apart from the alleged redundancies the post referred to extraordinary claims relating to the team and to other personalities in and around the club, a copy of which has been retained by us

Vitalfootball Leicester City sought to clarify the situation with Leicester City chief executive Tim Davies but, by 1-30pm, had not received a reply.
